If you have an upcoming event you want to publicize, you can submit it for free at http://events.ocregister.com/welcome/create. It's easy to sign up, and people will be able to find your event on our site and through search engines like Google. Our staff uses this online calendar to create listings in our print newspapers, too.

Events and venues submitted to http://events.ocregister.com/welcome/create will always go online (unless there are errors in the submission). We cannot guarantee other submissions will be posted or printed, including events e-mailed to us.

If you would like to send us non-listings information, e-mail dbharath@ocregister.com. We welcome all news tips and photos, e.g. unusual sights in your community, questions, tips about businesses opening or closing, an event that you attended, etc.

We prefer to receive photos as jpegs, at 300 dpi. Please write a caption describing what is going on and when and where the photo was taken, identify people in the photos, and include the name of the photographer for proper credit. That way we can give you credit.

If you would like to send us a story you wrote about an event you attended, e-mail it to dbharath@ocregister.com. Give us a a contact phone number and your name, so we can give you credit. Questions to consider when submitting a story: Who attended? How much did it cost? What happened at the event? How long did it last? Where was it?

Include the deceased's name, age, dates of birth and death, city the person lived in, place of death and any biographical information you would like to include. When listing survivors, please include first and last names and tell us their relationship to the deceased. If submitting a photo, please send it in jpg format. We reserve the right to edit according to our editorial style and space restrictions, and we cannot guarantee the obituary will be published. Please be sure to include your phone number in case we have any questions. You can also mail the information to Deepa Bharath, The Orange County Register, 2006 McGaw Ave., Irvine, CA 92614.
